No! Wade does not need a bunch of jobbers following him around anymore. Let him grow.

Jobbers? Heath Slater is NO Jobber! He's the oneeeeeeee mannnnnnn bannd babbby!
...ok he's a jobber. Nexus was awesome though. I was pretty happy the crowd was sticking it to the WWE who probably thought they forgot about The Nexus. I doubt the Nexus will be coming back, but I wouldn't be against it. Barley had my Nexus shirt a week before they got rid of most of the members on the shirt. |

Nah. One of the ideas behind having Barrett lead Nexus was so he would be able to eventually hold his own and do his thing, so why move backwards? He's already on his own, his got a character that definitely needs some tweaking but at least he's solo.
I'd rather bring back William Regal as his Manager, or even pair him up with CM Punk and Heyman. |

maybe if they bring in new guys to follow Barrett it'd be cool. it'd kinda be like "come on, bro" if I saw Heath Slater trying to be intimidating again.
bring in Big E Langston and some other scary looking dudes from FCW |

I'd like to see the Nexus brand brought back but not with Slater, Gabriel and the like. Keep Wade leader but go the Evolution route. Get a crooked vet, a young up and comer and "the muscle" and it'd be awesome.

Regal and Big E would be great for two of those roles. Maybe get Cody as the resident Orton? Meh maybe not.

Feel like WWE is really jumping the gun on this. Doubt they'll get the same chants in every arena. Was just one of those totally random occurences.

To be honest, Wade Barrett isn't a huge superstar at the moment. A "Nexus comeback" would definitely benefit him and make him a bigger name.

Eh, it was brilliant until they started having matches with Cena. I know he's the top face and all, but if he got taken out and out the belt on Barret briefly, surely it would have put it to a fever pitch for the kids to want Cena to overcome them.
They needed a solid 3 months or so of being invincible. Instead we got 2 weeks. |

Great idea......on paper. but it wouldn't be as effective as the first time, plus they want to push Barrett and he doesn'y need back up for now.

Typical. You have every arena in the country chanting "we want Ryder", and nothing happens. Then you have one arena chant "we want Nexus" and WWE officials are considering bringing them back.

Wade could try to recruit Ryback back, fails, then hands him his first loss even after he kicked out from 6 finishers from the entire Nexus stable. Make Ryback look like a monster AND that Nexus can beat anyone.

Even though Ryback's gimmick is boring, Ryback and Wade in Nexus would be sweet.

Feel like it'd be pretty awkward if they put the same guys back together. Everyone barring Gabriel has their own character now. It would be better if they had Barrett recruit guys who were just floating around not doing much like Hawkins, Mason Ryan, McIntyre, DiBiase and use Gabriel as well I suppose. And maybe one more bigger name like have Big Show join them or something.

I'd be more into this if there was someone other than Barret in the group I gave a damn about.

A Nexus group reformed to shit on CM Punk's parade would be a good story to watch.

Or if the built the stable around another former Nexus member it could work. Although you couldn't really use Otunga or Slater now. |

Maybe they can also resolve what the bigger picture was. And also why they attacked Undertaker.

I don't put too much stock in the story, Bridgeport has always been a very smark city. I was at a show there just 2 weeks after the Nexus formed and there were really loud "DANIEL BRYAN" chants and in general the group was cheered despite being heels.
That being said if Wade did bring the group back, I'd hope that everybody else in the group is new. Ryback is on a roll. Young, Gabriel, and of course Bryan are currently helping out the tag team division. Otunga and Slater are perfect in their current roles. I guess you could have guys who are doing fuck all like McGillicutty and Mason Ryan join up again, but they'd really just be taking up space. There's a fuckload of guys in development so I guess it'd be a neat way to debut a ton of new FCW wrestlers straight away. Don't really see anything coming of it, though. |

It's only gonna happen if there's anymore "we want nexus" chants, I doubt that'll happen.
But I wouldn't mind if they brought them back, a new gang though. In fact the new faction story could be taking out old members of Nexus (they can ignore Punk and Bryan unless they wanna turn them face) until they meet their match... Ryback |

It'd be great if they brought the stable back although I'm not sure that i'd wan't Barrett at the helm though it should be used to perhaps showcase the more recent nXt guys like Curtis, Watson, Riley, Bateman, etc.

I would like to see a new new nexus. Barrett and Punk can be co-fuhrers. Also, Ryback.

As long as the group didn't have Barrett in it, I would be okay with seeing the return..... that man needs championship gold around his waist..... Barrett v. Sheamus is a fued that I want to see.....

Wade Barrett wins the WWE Championship and reunites Nexus for a stranglehold on the WWE. Otunga, Gabriel, Slater, PTP all fall in line. One man does not and rises against them all. RYBACK.

Rather it doesn't come back considering they already did everything they could with the stable the first two times it was around (original and Punk version).
Only logical big star a new version of Nexus could go against would be Sheamus since they already had Nexus vs WWE, Nexus vs Cena, and Nexus vs Orton done in the past. All lead to them getting squashed pretty quickly after the initial few weeks. Even a feud against Sheamus has some issues because Ziggler hasn't cashed in yet and either it means a very short title reign for Ziggler or he looses and gets ignored in favor of a potential Sheamus vs Barrett feud that probably lasts going into Mania. |
